Hi developer folks! Thanks to all of you who start the development with InterSystems IRIS from the basic development template! Recently, thanks to @Dmitry.Maslennikov's contributions I've updated the Dockerfile to make the development simpler, images lighter and the building process faster. And it looks more beautiful too ;) Here is what changed: Let's go through the changes: 1. Lines 11-15 were substituted to only one line 7, that sets the WORKDIR. WORKDIR /home/irisowner/irisbuild Indeed, if the WORKDIR points to a home folder of the user that runs iris then there is no need to perform security adjustments. Of course I should change the line in iris.script to load zpm module from another workdir folder 2. Lines 17-21 were COPY commands that I used to use to copy different files from source folder of repo to an image to use it for iris or the environment. now all these were substituted with one line RUN --mount=type=bind,src=.,dst=. \ This syntax uses buildkit feature of Docker that allows mount files you need in the image without actually coping it. This saves the space and speeds up the building process. So with this you can forget about COPY commands at all: everything from the repo folder will be mounted and available in a WORKDIR during the build phase. Beautiful, isn't it? Make sure you have this option turned on in your Docker: 3. What's added is the line with TEST parameter: ARG TESTS=0 If TESTS=1 it makes Dockerfile to call unittest for ZPM module you develop in the project. This is being controlled with the following line: ([ $TESTS -eq 0 ] || iris session iris "##class(%ZPM.PackageManager).Shell(\"test $MODULE -v -only\",1,1)") && \ This TESTS parameter also helps to perform unit test automatically during the CI. This deserves and additional topic to discuss and I'll continue with this in the next article. Or you can check it in Dmitry's code if you don't want to wait ) Hope you liked it, but friendly feedback, concerns and pull requests are very welcome! Happy coding! Great initiative, I will try to apply this to most of my repository. BTW, there is an easy way to enable BuildKit without editing the config file of docker : Unix : ```sh DOCKER_BUILDKIT=1 docker-compose build ``` Windows : ```sh set "DOCKER_BUILDKIT=1" & docker-compose build ``` To find this quoting in Windows kept me busy for quite a while 2 months agoas it wasn't part of the README.md ! GRAND MERCI ! Thanks, @Guillaume.Rongier7183! Nice finding on the BUILDKIT! Direct source code mounting in image is must have, thank you!

Hi All, When I log into Backup mirror member it becomes too slow to load and navigate, I tried to check message log and I saw the error message about Database mirror latency and database disk issue which when I check it looks fine to me. Please have a look at the below screenshots and advise what the issue could be. When I run df -h through SSH : 200G is the volume size, 194G is used space, 6.5G is available space and 97% IS %Use Datababase view from management portal for the same db volume Disk space error message from message log: The below error shows sometimes when the system tries to load Hello Ephraim, This seems like a better question for InterSystems Support / WRC who can look at the full log and system to try and determine what's happening. From a file system disk space perspective, the database is almost filling the disk, but there is free space WITHIN the database from the IRIS perspective. Regarding the performance side of things, what did you check such that it looks fine? CPU / memory / disk? When did the warnings start and are they ongoing? What's being done on the system, anything abnormal? Ephraim, Does the top command show a large swap space. I have seen backup servers with a smaller physical memory get the programs into swap space which as you know is extremely slow to operate. John Hello Ephraim, your database is 193GB and has 141GB of free space (73% free). There is a 6.5GB space on the OS file system, I recommend you to:- Compact globals in database- Compact free space ibn database- Return free space in database All those can be done when you do the following: USER>zn "%sys"%SYS>do ^DATABASE

There are many options to do a full security scan in your docker images, the most popular option is Anchore community edition. Anchore will use the main public vulnerabilities databases available, including CVE. To install Anchore is very ease (source: https://engine.anchore.io/docs/quickstart/), follow the steps: Create a folder in your OS and download the anchor docker compose file to the created folder. curl -O https://engine.anchore.io/docs/quickstart/docker-compose.yaml Run: docker-compose up -d Check docker services availability (services with up status): docker-compose ps Check Anchore services availability (services with up and the product version in the last row): docker-compose exec api anchore-cli system status Now wait for the vulnerability database sync (about 30 to 120 minutes, depends the internet speed). You can check the progress running this command: docker-compose exec api anchore-cli system feeds list When all files synced, you can begin to use Anchore. To do a security scan is simple, but you need to know the docker image name to be scanned. I will scan the last InterSystems IRIS docker image (after add write your docker image name): # docker-compose exec api anchore-cli image add store/intersystems/iris-community:2020.4.0.524.0 # docker-compose exec api anchore-cli image wait store/intersystems/iris-community:2020.4.0.524.0 You will see this message until analysis end: Status: analyzing Waiting 5.0 seconds for next retry. With the image added, you can see the analysis status/content, see: docker-compose exec api anchore-cli image content store/intersystems/iris-community:2020.4.0.524.0 os: available files: available npm: available gem: available python: available java: available binary: available go: available malware: available With the status analyzed, it is possible list the current vulnerabilities found, see: docker-compose exec api anchore-cli image vuln store/intersystems/iris-community:2020.4.0.524.0 all Finally to know if the your image passed in the security scan, run: docker-compose exec api anchore-cli evaluate check store/intersystems/iris-community:2020.4.0.524.0 See more details in this tutorial: https://anchore.com/blog/docker-image-security-in-5-minutes-or-less/. Enjoy! Thanks @YURI MARX GOMESWell explained
